Notes
'Gosia' peony (Paeonia 'Gosia') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, cottage gardens, and perennial beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and loamy soil. Dark pink flowers fade to lighter pink, have a light fragrance, and need no support on the compact upright plants. Joshua Scholten bred it. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Creeping phlox, Abiqua Drinking Gourd hosta, and Blue grama.
